It is prohibited, both on packaging or labels and in advertising, in any form whatsoever, to use any indication, name, product or service brand, image or other sign, figurative or otherwise, which, when applied to a spring water, is likely to create confusion with a natural mineral water, in particular by indicating properties favourable to health, by mentioning expressions containing the word “mineral” or derivatives of this word, or by highlighting one or more particular elements relating to the composition of the water.
However, mention of the suitability of spring water for infant feeding is authorised under the same conditions as those laid down in articles R. 1322-44-12 and R. 1322-44-13 for natural mineral waters.
